Summary:
Comquest Academy is an alternative public charter school located in Tomball, Texas, serving grades 2-12 with a total enrollment of 54 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 18.52% White, 9.26% African American, 68.52% Hispanic, 1.85% Asian, and 1.85% two or more races.
Comquest Academy stands out for its strong emphasis on graduation and student retention, consistently maintaining high four-year graduation rates ranging from 87.5% to 100% over the past five years, significantly higher than the nearby Lane School, which had a much lower four-year graduation rate of only 2.9% in the most recent year. The school also reports a 0% dropout rate for the past five years, indicating a strong focus on student success. However, Comquest Academy's academic performance on STAAR tests is mixed, with the school performing well in some subject areas, such as English II Reading and U.S. History, but struggling in others, particularly in Science and Mathematics, where it had 0% proficiency, significantly below the state average.
Comquest Academy's diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic and African American students compared to the nearby Texas College Preparatory Academies and School Of Science And Technology charter schools, suggests a commitment to serving a wide range of students. The school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $14,483 to $18,940 over the past three years, may be a reflection of this focus on providing additional resources and support for its students, many of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the school's high free and reduced-price lunch rates.
